Generated agri-chemical droplets by orchard sprayers are evaporated regenerated and transported along wind streams. The droplets are deposited to targets after changing their sizes, affecting the retention of droplets. An orchard sprayer, designed for spraying grapevines was studied on the spatial distribution of droplet size. The experimental variables were spray direction (0, 22.5, 45, 67.5 and 90˚), distance(2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 m) and fan speed (2,075 and 3,031 rpm). Droplet sizes were converted and analyzed from spray stains, sampled using water sensitive papers. The number median diameter (NMD) increased with an increase of the distance due to disappeared fine droplets (<50 ㎛): however, the volume median diameter (VMD) decreased due to shrunken large droplets (>100 ㎛). Fast fan speed delivered large droplets to 3.5 m, but the spatial distributions of NMD and VMD were not uniform. Slower fan speed decreased the possibility of evaporation and drift; therefore, plenty of droplets were maintained up to 3.0 m. The upward blasting distance was limited within 3 m, but the limit to the ground level was extended to 3.5 m. Concentrated wind and droplets to the ground level should be redistributed to upper canopy direction, leading more uniform deposits. High speed wind and system pressure should be avoided because of generating fine droplets, which would be disappeared and drifted away.

경기도 퇴촌에 위치한 경희대학교 연습림내의 낙엽송, 잣나무 및 굴참나무의 천연활엽수로 구성된 3개의 임반에서 경사도와 년간 강우량 변화에 따른 투수특성을 조사하였다. 3개의 임반의 O, A, B층은 3개 임반 모두 경사도가 낮은 하부사면에서 관찰되었으나 경사도가 높은 산사면이나 수간우가 많은 일부 지역에서는 바로 암반층 또는 풍화층이 나타나는 경향을 보이고 있다. 그러나 잣나무 임반은 유기물 퇴적층과 A층이 낙엽송이나 굴참나무 임반보다 잘 발달되어 O층은 약 5내지 10cm 정도이고 A층 또한 O층 아래로 약 50cm까지 깊게 발달되었다. 낙엽송 임반의 하부사면의 경우 A층의 발달이 약 35cm부터 약60cm 에 이르고 있으나 토성을 구성하는 요소중 직경 2mm 이상의 자갈에 토양입자들이 전체 토양의 40%정도를 차지하고 있다. 이러한 토층분화 특성을 달리하는 임반에서의 투수특성은 표층토에서는 약 5.2cm/hr였고 A층에서는 평균 8.2cm/hr 정도였다. 이는 A층에서의 토성이 주로 자갈로 구성되어 대공극을 이루고 있고 평균 부피수분함량이 약 25%인 점을 감안하면 상대 투수속도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었다. 그리고 산지사면의 상부보다 상대투수속도가 증가되는 경향을 볼 수 있는데 이는 상부에서의 토층발달이 제대로 이루어지지 않아 투수속도에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 실험의 결과로 추정할 때 지표층에 존재하는 유기물과 토층 분화 정도가 투수에 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.

유도 결합 플라즈마 (ICP)는 축전 결합 플라즈마 (CCP) 보다 상대적으로 높은 밀도의 플라즈마를 발생시킬 수 있다. 또한 구조가 간단하고 기존 스퍼터링 장치의 내부에 추가 설치가 용이하며, 스퍼터된 입자의 이온화, 반응성 가스의 활성화를 위한 2차 플라즈마원으로 적용이 가능하다. 그러나 대면적의 고밀도 플라즈마의 균일도 측정은 고가의 2D probe array등을 사용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 CCD camera를 챔버 내부에 삽입하여 가시광 영역의 적분 강도를 이용해서 플라즈마의 2차원적 균일도를 정성적으로 비교 판단하고 시간에 따른 국부적인 이상 방전을 감시할 수 있도록 내장형 무선 카메라를 사용하였다. 직경 380 mm의 챔버 내에 2 turn ICP antenna를 이용하여 유도 결합 플라즈마를 발생시켰다(Ar 30 sccm, 35 mTorr, 2 MHz, 400 W). 내장형 무선 카메라를 챔버 내부 중앙의 ICP antenna에서 8 cm 아래에 위치시켜 플라즈마를 진공 중에서 촬영하였다. 내장형 무선 카메라를 챔버 내부에 위치하여 촬영한 결과 외부에서 view port로 쉽게 확인할 수 없는 ICP antenna 내부의 고밀도 플라즈마의 불균일도를 평가할 수 있었고, ICP antenna 가장자리에서 중심으로 이동할수록 밝아지는 것을 토대로 중심 영역의 plasma 밀도가 가장 높다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 채도와 명도의 차이를 이용하여 시각적인 플라즈마 균일도를 분석하였으며 이를 플라즈마 모델링 기능이 있는 전산 유체 역학 프로그램인 CFD ACE+를 이용하여 플라즈마 분포를 모델링 및 비교하였다. 또한 인라인 타입의 마그네트론 스퍼터링 시스템에서 기판 캐리어에 무선 카메라를 장착하여 이동하면서 캐리어와 마그네트론 방전 공간의 상대적인 위치에 따른 마그네트론 방전링의 형상 변화도 관찰하였다.

A uniflow cyclone has simple structure with a single channel in one direction. The one directional particle removal enables the uniflow cyclone to have compact size and low pressure drop. However, it has low collection efficiency compared to conventional cyclones. In this study, the effect of primary geometry on the performance of a uniflow cyclone with swirl vane is numerically investigated for the design of high performance uniflow cyclone. It is found that as the vortex finder diameter is increased, the pressure drop and the collection efficiency are decreased. Also, the same trend is predicted when the vortex finder height is increased. The best collection efficiency is predicted to be obtained when the vortex finder height is equal to the diameter of a cyclone. Reducing the body height by half will increase the pressure drop by 41%. When the body height is decreased, the collection efficiency is first increased and then decreased. The best collection efficiency is obtained when the body height is 4~5 times the cyclone diameter. Overall, the particle collection efficiency is highest when the Dν/D is equal to 0.3. But, the pressure drop is as high as 1592 Pa. Considering both collection efficiency and pressure drop, the best design is when Dν/D, Hν/D, and Hb/D are equal to 0.5, 1, and 5, respectively.

A single spray plume is the basic unit of the entire spray plume and is an important factor in understanding the spray characteristics. However, since the multi-hole GDI injector has a narrow spray angle, the superposition of the spray plumes occurs severely. Therefore, the spray uniformity and the spray atomization characteristics of a single spray plume were analyzed in this study using a single-hole GDI injector. Five single-hole GDI injectors with different nozzle hole diameters were used in the experiment. The uniformity of the spray was evaluated through the analysis of the spray pattern images. In addition, the atomization characteristics were compared using the diameter distribution of the spray droplets obtained using PDPA. As a result, the larger diameter of the nozzle hole, the less uniformity of the spray, and the injection pressure did not have a significant effect on the spray uniformity. It is judged that the surface roughness of the injector has a greater effect on spray uniformity than the diameter of the nozzle hole. Also, the size of the spray droplets increased sharply when the diameter of the nozzle hole was 230 ㎛.

The remnant of temporary cement on the intaglio surface of cast restoration may have a negative effect on the retentive strength of permanent cement. This study was to evaluate the effect of temporary cement cleaning methods on the retentive strength of cementation type implant prostheses. Prefabricated implant abutments - height 5.5mm, diameter 4.5mm, 6 degree axial wall taper with chamfer margins were used. Forty copings-abutment specimens were divided into four groups(each n=10) according to the cleaning methods for temporary cement(Temp-$Bond^{(R)}$) as follows : no temporary cementation(the control group), orange solvent, ultrasonic cleaning, air borne-particle abrasion. After the application of temporary cement and the separation, the cleaning procedure was performed according to the protocol of each group. The specimens were cemented with $Premier^{(R)}$ Implant $Cement^{TM}$. After the permanent cementation, the specimens were subjected to thermocycling and pulled out from the specimens with a universal testing machine at a cross-head speed of 0.5mm/min. After the retentive strength test, all the specimens were cleaned using ultrasonic cleaning, abraded with air borne-particles, and steam-cleaned. Likewise, the specimens were temporarily cemented(Temp-$Bond^{(R)}$ NE), cleaned according to the protocol of each group, cemented with $Premier^{(R)}$ Implant $Cement^{TM}$ and subjected to thermocycling and measurement of their retentive strength. The mean of group with orange solvent were significantly lower than those of other groups(p<0.05). There was no significance between group with ultrasonic cleaning and group with air borne-particle abrasion. Group with ultrasonic cleaning and group with air-particle abrasion were no significance at control group. There was no significance between group cemented with Temp-$Bond^{(R)}$ and group cemented with Temp-$Bond^{(R)}$ NE. Within the limitation of this study, it can be concluded that the temporary cement cleaning method with only orange solvent may have a negative effect on the retentive strength of permanent cement. Ultrasonic cleaning and air borne-particle abrasion methods are recommended for the temporary cement cleaning method on cementation type implant prostheses.

Purpose. With the advancement of digital technology, 3D printing is being utilized in the fabrication of denture base. Nevertheless, increasing microbial adhesion to the surface of denture base has been reported as the disadvantage of 3D-printed denture base. The purpose of this study is to investigate the antifungal properties and flexural strength of 3D-printed denture base resin according to the different contents of titanium dioxide nanoparticles. Materials and methods. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles were mixed with the 3D printing resin at the ratios of 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 wt%. Twenty specimens per each group were printed in the form of cylindrical shape (diameter: 20 mm, height: 3 mm) to evaluate antifungal properties. Ten specimens from each group underwent polishing using autogrinder, while the remaining ten specimens did not. Candida albicans in hyphae form was inoculated onto each specimen, optical density and colony-forming unit were analyzed. The surface of the specimen was observed using scanning electron microscopy. To evaluate the flexural strength, twenty specimens per each group were 3D printed in the form of rectangular prism shape (length: 64 mm, height: 10 mm, width: 3 mm) and three-point bending tests were conducted using universal testing machine according to ISO 20795-1. Results. Colony-forming unit of C.albicans and optical density of culture medium showed no difference between non-polished groups, but decreased in the polished groups at concentration of 1, 1.5, 2 wt% titanium dioxide nanoparticles. Flexural strength increased with titanium dioxide nanoparticle at concentration of 0.5, 1, 1.5 wt%, but decreased at 2 wt% compared to 1.5 wt%. Conclusion. When 1.5 wt% of titanium dioxide nanoparticles were added to the 3D-printed denture base resin with polishing, antifungal properties were increased.

SAC-coated Cu specimens were fabricated by novel pad finish process using a phenomenon that metal nanoparticles less than 20 nm in diameter melted at a temperature lower than the melting point of bulk metal, and their wettabilities were evaluated. The thickness of SAC305 layer coated at low temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ using SAC305 ink was extremely thin as the level of several nanometers. It was analyzed by Auger electron spectroscopy that $Cu_6Sn_5$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 10~100 nm and $Cu_3Sn$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 50~150 nm were sequentially formed under the SAC305 coating layer. The thickness of formed intermetallic layers was thicker in electroplated Cu than rolled Cu, which attributed to improved surface roughness in the electroplated Cu. The improved surface roughness induces the contact, melting, and reaction of a larger number of SAC305 nanoparticles per the unit area of Cu specimen. In the wetting angle test using SAC305 solder balls, the Cu coated with SAC305 through the low temperature process presented evidently low wetting angles than those in non-coated Cu, indicating that only a few nanometer-thick SAC305 coating layer on Cu could also cause the enhancement of wettability.
